Tonight’s movie: “The Game” (1997), directed by David Fincher

Oh no! My @bsky.app Discover feed is down. Does that mean I'm going to have to focus? I don't remember how.

just saw a guy order a *small* coffee with six sugars and five creamers. his friend turned to him and said “ you disgust me”

can someone tell me what it's like to not always have a song stuck in your head?

I didn't used to understand how people in the Middle Ages could get so mad that they would dig up someone's corpse and put it on trial. Now I do.

Nothing quite says "our app and website are hopelessly broken and we give up" like sending a paper letter advising a user to call, "so we can walk you through the process" of updating details #uxFail

It's been a stupidly hot weekend in Sydney. Dropped into the local library which has extended hours to beat the the heat today. I've never seen it so full. All the tables occupied with people studying, or reading, or doing puzzles. People resting in the comfy chairs. Libraries - more than books. 💙📚

It me! #musicNerd

This is an @gregosby.bsky.social appreciation post. Listening to Tyshawn Storey's The Off Broadway Guide to Synergism and Mr Osby's playing on the track Please Stand By (and heck the whole album) is absolute 🔥 Check it tyshawn-sorey.bandcamp.com/album/the-of...

Sweet dreams are made of cheese Who am I to dis a brie? I've tasted the wheels and the bocconcini Emmentaler's looking for something Some of them make a fondue Some of them make into burrata Some of them turn to cheese curds Some of them spread on focaccia

Not so much for the post, but the replies. Holy crap the original semiotic system from 1978 😍 #uxInspiration #Alien

What I did last week : The bird, The duck, The monkey, The watusi, And uh, the boogaloo

What I did last week: 1. Slipped out the back, Jack, 2. Made a new plan, Stan 3. Wasn't coy, Roy, and listened to he 4. Hopped on the bus, Gus... We didn't discuss much 5. Dropped off the key, Lee, and set myself free.

Maybe we should all re-read Snow Crash.

There is a dead amusement park near where I'm staying and I think that's a metaphor for something, America

Last minute panic downloading music on the plane before losing network is my jam #musicNerd

My kingdom for a music recommendation engine that understands genre, vibe and doesn't suggest 5 songs by the same artist in a row

Dog seems to think it is her job to remove gum nuts from fallen branches. With a 30 meter tall tree in our back yard she's in no danger of being made redundant any time soon #dogsLife #dogsWithJobs #straya

First time ever we got 10/10 on the @thesaturdaypaper.com.au quiz. The average of normies was 6. Basically we won the weekend!!

My car mechanic just wished me a happy Valentine's Day. Um, thank you, I guess?

'Safety first' when sacking Rome.

Turned on #abcnews report on The Great Australian Dream. The boy says "Oh, it's the Dad!" Referring to @alankohler.bsky.social Chris Kohler has a fan!!

Me: I love this Him: this is The Meters. Also him: you know The Meters had Art and Cyrill Neville who formed the Neville brothers. #myMusicNerd 😍 #musicsky

I love emdashes! And I’m a human being, damnit. *checks fingers* *counts seven fingers on each hand* oh no

The real hierarchy of needs

All my experience has taught me one simple fact: The most important, and most laboured-over part of survey design is coming up with a pun to put in the title or teaser text.

Seeing someone else comment "I think G makes a great point..." in a doc means I'm done for the day, right?
